'Our fave' is my fave

I'm linking up with Jodie over at The Haby Goddess today with 'Make, Grow, Thrift'.

Those who know me will realise that I am not so great at the second two things - though we are working on the 'grow' element with our vegetable garden and fruit trees, so I am joining in with a 'make' item.


I love the draped effect at the front.

I actually made this top a good month or so ago but hadn't had the chance to get a pic and blog it - so I got 'the guy who lives here' to snap a couple of shots for me today.

It's a free pattern - the 'Our Fave' top from the Tessuti blog.

Hmmm - wish he'd told me to turn that sleeve seam under a little...

Lara had made it before and I tried it on at NCB at least a year ago, then it just sat on my 'to do' list for ages, til I got all that lovely stretch fabric.

Ready for take off!

Here's the shape when your arms are out.

While being so big and loose it is probably not the most flattering of tops, it is such a comfortable top to throw on and wear.
Also, in my opinion, looks that bit more dressed up than a T-shirt with jeans.

I have a few more projects planned for this stretch fabric - hope you're not going to get sick of it!

Head on over to Jodie's to share the 'Make, Grow, Thrift' love.
